There's a lot of bad information spreading about mpox. So lets talk about what we know, who is at risk, and what needs to be done First, we had a global mpox outbreak in 2022. It was caused by clade IIb (think of clade like you think of variants) In the US and Europe, it

This was incorrect. She has not deleted the tweets. I was fooled by fake news. My apologies. (She’s still absolutely awful to trans people, and the comments about her being a bigot and bully stand).

It doesn't matter if Gus Walz is 7, 17, or 27. It doesn't matter if he has autism, adhd, or is the most neurotypical person alive. Being proud of your dad is normal. Crying is normal. Being so proud of your dad that you cry is ASPIRATIONAL. Toxic masculinity is such a plague.

Deadly antivaxx BS, lies about causes of gender dysphoria, AIDS denialism tropes, links school shootings to antidepressants, and now.... an endorsement of Trump. Holy cow, RFK Jr is an evil force. theguardian.com/us-news/articl… by Lois Beckett

This is not true. Dr Hotez criticized the conference. He did not try to “shut it down.” Criticism of something is not censorship. Bryce hiding behind a “chat GPT” headline only makes it worse. Own your work and your comments.

The report from the Australian Senate Inquiry into excess deaths is out. Excess deaths between 2021 and 2023 were primarily caused from COVID - both directly and indirectly. XS deaths would have been much worse without vaccination. aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_…

A truly vile form of HIV denial from a kooky and weird man. For the record, what killed people en masse was HIV. Not AZT. Not poppers. Not a ban on therapeutic drugs. HIV.

RFK Jr’s uneducated, unqualified self is lying again There’s no cure for Covid Ivermectin and HCQ do not work for Covid as evidenced by multiple trials EUA for a vaccine is not contingent upon an approved therapeutic already approved. They’re completely different categories

Please don’t drink raw milk. It can contain: E.coli Salmonella Campylobacter Non-tuberculous micobacteria Brucella Listeria Etc etc. Just pasteurize and enjoy. (And RFK Jr’s running mate here should delete her account).

Below is why we should not take Jay Bhattaracharya (of Great Barrington Declaration infamy) seriously on anything COVID-19 related. You can’t claim to be a serious voice if you’re promoting outright cranks (Rancourt denies the existence of SARS-CoV2).

Amplifying voices that purport to show the superiority of certain races over others is racism, pure and simple. Elon Musk is a stupid man… but even he knows this.

Both vaccine hesitancy & belief in harmful bunk increasing. A big reason? Politics. And it's killing people. My NEW article: Politics & vaccine misinformation: A horrifyingly bad mix healthydebate.ca/2024/09/topic/… "As anti-vaccine movements become more mainstream in conservative
